Conservative pundit Michelle Malkin says Donald Trump is a “clown” and a “coward.” Trump says Malkin is a “dummy” and was “born stupid.”

The pair engaged in a back-and-forth Twitter war, kicking off with Malkin writing to her followers Thursday night that Trump supports the pro-eminent domain Supreme Court case Kelo v. New London, “cheered socialized medicine, smeared ‘my past’ & called me a dummy. #phony.” She also tweeted, “Still waiting for coward @realDonaldTrump to tell me what in my ‘past’ I should be ashamed of. #SmearMerchant.”

Trump responded on Friday, tweeting to Malkin, “at least dummy is true!” and “you were born stupid!”

Malkin quickly replied on Twitter, writing, “So @realDonaldTrump just called me a dummy again for exposing him as a conservafraud. Keep digging, clown." She also tweeted at Trump, “your water-carriers tried to get me to shut up. They failed. You don't like women you can't control. God bless America.”
